I saw a stat that the NCHC was at the top for portal entries. Basically Big10, HE and obviously the Ivys were at the bottom. Which I don’t expect to change anytime soon.

How so? I actually like the Mcmorrow add. Not a high end offensive player but not super old…good two way. Will most likely play 3-4 years. I guess my question is, there is room for 1-2 high end CHL players. The issue is that you have to pay them. Do we have the $? Do they want to play in GF? The CHL overagers other teams are grabbing are not what I would consider “high enders”.

I just heard the same thing

I’m hearing those rumors too. One thing I’ve noticed…they’re adding over agers and size. Helps you win games in the short term. Hopefully we pull in a couple high enders too. Fun for the fans to track…but winning is most important I would assume

Curious how the new nhl/USA hockey/ushl agreement will impact its competitiveness with the CHL leagues. I know no finer details of the agreement other than funding. But it would seem as though it would lift that league a bit in the intermediate term.

sounds like MTU Gordan is coming here?

Interesting

In summary…he’s trying a bit hard to jumpstart his post playing career career

We can. Sandy would come in as a third stringer im assuming.

Agreed this one would be a head scratcher. Gibson, Hobie, Sandy? Obvious 3rd stringer. I suppose I’d be fine with that. Local kid.

There always are

It’s easy to say all that, buts those are some of the guys we’ve been getting the past 5-7 years. I’m hoping these guys end up high end college players. But to say these guys are going to be awesome is a bit premature. That’s all I’m saying. Time will tell. Every commit “is that next guy” on this forum…until they have an avg/below avg year

I really like zetterberg, ridiculously skilled. Tiny though, so there’s risk.

You take him if available. However I could see him playing another year in the dub. 6’3” 190 as an almost 18 year old. Thats a blue chip.

I’ve been hinting at it for a couple years. I saw where most of the blue chips were going. Every commit we get is the greatest on this forum…until the following year when they’re written off as underclassmen. Or “look at how good our incoming class is”? Last year was solid but it’s been just above avg for a little while now.

I really hope so. And i do really mean that. I like the add from a long term prospective. There’s some things I like (he’s old, bigger kid, scored in a tough league, etc) but there are also question marks (he’s old, uncommitted before?, came out of nowhere, undrafted, etc). I do trust Bryn though.

Seems like an ok get

I’m sure coaches and player were on same page….this isn’t really a loss. Kid hasn’t played in two years, try to find another team with options. We’ll replace him with someone younger.

I honestly don’t think he’s the caliber UND typically recruits. And to his benefit, would he want to come here when it’s not obvious? Or go your own route and earn it?

It’s going to be a long long long shot…especially considering who’s after him. But, we will land some decent CHL forwards…the current hole at F is way too big. They’ll go out and get 2-3 of them minimum.

Are we talking about Gavin?

Zero chance haha

Can anyone post the breakdown of Brad’s draft article posted this morning?

Yep. He’s another one that’ll need to play another year. I don’t understand writing him off completely. Let’s see what he does next year.

Highly doubtful.
